For if thou criest after wisdom, and callest for knowledge;

If thou seekest after her as after money, and diggest for her as for treasures;

that thou lust not after her beauty in thine heart, and lest thou be taken with her fair looks.

He that laboureth for honesty findeth his desire; but whoso seeketh after mischief, it shall happen unto him.

The desire of the ungodly hunteth after mischief; but the root of the righteous bringeth forth fruit.

Every man shall enjoy good according to the innocency of his mouth; and after the works of his hands shall he be rewarded.

A wise heart will seek after knowledge; but the mouths of fools meddle with foolishness.

Pride goeth before destruction; and after a proud stomach there followeth a fall.

He that loveth strife, delighteth in sin; and whoso setteth his door too high, seeketh after a fall.

After pride cometh destruction; and honour after lowliness.

O give ear unto good counsel, and be content to be reformed; that thou mayest be wise here after.

Give not the fool an answer after his foolishness, lest thou become like unto him;

Wicked men discern not the thing that is right, but they that seek after the LORD, discuss all things.

After pride cometh a fall; but a lowly spirit bringeth great worship.
